Summary:"On the whole, therefore, I beg leave very respectfully to submit to the honorable Committee, that, according to the best opinion I can form, the elaborate and well argued judgment of the Supreme Judicial Court, above referred to, affirms and maintains the proposition, that the Legislature may by law establish what shall or shall not be a rateable poll, by providing in the tax act who shall or shall not be liable to be rated--and that when this is done by such legislative act, the representation in the House of Representatives must be predicated upon the number of such rateable polls, according to the ratio which the constitution has established, and that any inconvenience which might result to individuals or corporations by the exercise of such legislative power is no reason against the constitutional right, but addresses itself to the sound discretion of the Legislature, to act or not act, as in their wisdom the general interests of the Commonwealth may require in the premises."--Page 18-19.
